125 years future

“If anyone had told my father during the first few years of his business career that his company would have ­operations abroad, he would probably have laughed ­incredulously”, are words found in the memoirs of Carl Haver jun. (1884 – 1976), written by company founder Carl Haver’s son in the 1960s. Haver senior and his cousin, Eduard Boecker, founded their company, Haver & Boecker, in Märkisch county’s Hohenlimburg, then the centre of German wire drawing and weaving, on August 25, 1887. Their initial output consisted of wire gauze for miners’ lamps. A subsequent successful product took the form of closures for cement bags.
